More Court Dates for McBride in 2013
During recent interviews with The Valley Sentinel, Crown Prosecutor Geoff McDonald and local RCMP Corporal Barry Kennedy noted that there will likely be more court dates for McBride with an increase in files being opened and followed up within the local detachment. There appears to be a decrease in files being received from the Valemount detachment and during the last year only 21 files were received up to Dec. 17, and therefore it is likely that there will be a decrease in court dates for Valemount. There is expected to be an increase in court date numbers in McBride if trends continue according to McDonald and Kennedy with an increase in files being opened by the McBride detachment.
